Nature as we know has a vast accrual of colors, textures, patterns and appearances. All we need to do is to blend them well so that there is diversity and vividness. Your garden is incomplete without the proper blending of plants. Pep up your garden by melding the perfect combinations of foliage textures and colors.

The Tropical Touch-

Ti plants can add exciting color to your garden landscape. The foliage of Ti plants can have outstanding colors ranging from, green and white to red, purple or orange. They are often found in striking combinations of these colors.

A Dramatic Touch to the Porch-

There is nothing more beautiful than a front porch constellated/studded with pots and hanging planters with boastful bracts of large flowing ferns. There are numerous varieties to choose from. The most common being, Boston fern: the one with frilly leaves which are perfect for hanging planters, Adiantum fragrans, popularly known as Maiden hair fern: easily identifiable by the fresh green and lovely look, Staghorn fern: as the name suggests the leaves look like antlers of a stag and Bird’s-nest fern: which grows in a tight nest-like clump.

Combination of Swish Green and Rich Dark Colors-

A garden looks strikingly beautiful when it has a combination of both light and dark colors. Coleus plants come in many varieties and are preferred for the cheery bright leaves. You can make your garden look awesome by creating a pattern of light and dark colors. Rich purple or dark red foliage creates magical combination with green ones in any garden.

Enchanting Fragrance-

A garden without fragrance is one without a soul. Lend an enchanting sweet fragrance to your garden with flowers like Champa, Magnolia and Himalayan Fragrant Orchid and turn it into your abode of relaxation.

Creeper Up-

Embellish the pillars and compound walls with beautiful vines and creepers like Purple Clematis Mandevilla, Garlic creeper, Sweet Pea and Crimson Glory Climber Rose. But if you wish to keep it green, English Ivy, Creeping Fig and Curtain creeper or Vernonia creeper can be good options.

Cascading the uneven edges-

The gracefully trailing grasses like liriope emerald cascade or Hakone grass can serve the purpose of hiding those uneven edges of the flower beds that ruins the show of your garden.

 The Sweet Spot-

 The inspiration for great poetry is the tranquility of mind. Your garden is not just a landscape of beauty. It is the magical place that can bring out the poet in you. So when you have set things right, choose the sweet spot for relaxation and let a decorative chair and table serve the purpose for unwinding yourself and be amazed at the songs of the birds, the fragrance of the flowers and the beauty of the growing plants.
